Remedy Entertainment's Metroidvania action-adventure title has also crossed 19 million lifetime players across all platformers, it's been announced.
Though the content is unknown, it could tie into the aftermath of Alan Wake 2's The Lake House expansion and maybe Control 2.
Remedy Entertainment has seemingly snuck the first glimpses of Control 2 into the recently-released second DLC for Alan Wake 2.
"We now also have an incredible partner to extend our IPs to other mediums," says the studio behind the two franchises.
"We feel Annapurna is the perfect partner to work with as the game development is moving forward towards production," say Remedy's Mikael Kasurinen and Juha Vainio.
Control's The Oldest House will act as the primary setting for the multiplayer game currently codenamed Condor.
The studio wants to grow both franchises to have "an ability to generate revenues and profits at a high level."
Hardspace: Shipbreaker, Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Remastered and Shredders will leave the service on March 15th.
The Finnish game developer will handle publishing, marketing, distribution and other rights for Condor and Control 2 going forward.
The developer says "growing and expanding" the Alan Wake and Control franchises will be "a key part of our future."
Remedy Entertainment's third-person shooter has sold an additional 1 million units since its last official sales update.
McCaffrey was best known for his roles in a number of Remedy Entertainment titles, most notably Max Payne.
"Codename Condor, together with Control 2, will expand the Control brand, which will be one of Remedy’s cornerstones for years to come," the studio says.
The studio behind Max Payne, Alan Wake, Control, and more has updated its logo for the first time in over 20 years.
The third-person shooter released in August 2019 for Xbox One, PS4 and PC before coming to Xbox Series X/S and PS5 with the Ultimate Edition.
As part of the Epic Games Stores' 15 Days of Free Games promotional campaign, Remedy Entertainment's Control is free to claim today.
While Condor presently remains in the proof-of-concept stage, the bigger budget Control title is currently in the concept stage.
In a recent interview, Control publisher 505 Games acknowledges that the game's upgrade paths could have been better.
